      The graphics card in my (Vista) laptop recently died. I have purchased a new (Windows 7) laptop and installed the old hard drive in the new PC as a second drive. Everything is intact, including the old registry, which I can still access by loading as a hive in Regedit.

      I reinstalled Sketchup 8 and copied the Plugins folder and templates over, but I am clearly missing a lot of stuff. For example I had installed the plugin that allows you to specify exactly what toolbars you want etc. (can't remember its name) but the toolbars have reverted to the standard toolbars.

      Where exactly (files or registry?) are the various settings for Sketchup stored, so that I can copy them over rather than trying to recreate everything again please?

        You probably need to go to Window>Preferences>Extensions and tick the boxes you find there.

          If that doesn't solve your problem, most of the registry settings for rubies and extensions are in the various subfolders of HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Google/SketchUp8/

            Both those suggestions were just what I was looking for. Thanks a lot for that.
